lyrics

“In which a woman turns out to be too intense of a personality for our protagonist.”

It lasted seventeen days
And I’m still amazed I got that far

To her life was like a race
With my sanity as the finish line

She was a metaphor for more
An angular curve
No nerve
No fear
My dear

I can’t hold on

Goodbye
I’ll miss you my dear
Farewell
Etcetera
Good night, Suzanna

It’s been one hell of a ride
Italian opera seems tame
Compared to you

She had a beautiful place
A nice use of space and time

There we made love on the floor
From seven to four
What more could you want?

I drank more coffee than was fun
But still I was gone
So stunned
So beat
This heat

I can’t hold on

Goodbye
I’ll miss you my dear
Farewell
Etcetera
Good night, Suzanna

It’s been one hell of a ride
Italian opera seems tame
Compared to you

Oh Suzanna,
This been going on too long
I didn’t realise
That everything could go wrong
When I hold you in my arms
Disaster with a charm, oh!

Goodbye
I’ll miss you my dear
Farewell
Etcetera
Good night, Suzanna

It’s been one hell of a ride
Italian opera seems tame
Compared to you
